Guided Book Study - Cohort 2
From Lone Champion to Lasting Policy: Build Your Campus Transition Plan with Global Peers
Available spots
Service Description
Are you the "lone champion" for transitions-care at your school, worried that if you leave, the program leaves with you? One-off workshops and guest speakers inspire us, but daily campus demands often cause momentum to fade once the trainer leaves. The SPAN Guided Book Study, led by Amy Shuflin, bridges the gap between inspiration and execution. This 10-session collaborative workspace helps international educators turn transition challenges into a sustainable, leadership-approved campus plan. What You Will Build: The "State of the Union" Proposal You won't just leave with notes. You will walk away with a completed, leadership-ready "State of the Union" Transitions-Care Proposal built using SPAN’s framework: Target Audience: Identify key decision-makers (Head of School, Board, Counseling Leads). The "Why": Align transitions-care directly with your school’s core values and research on attachment in schools. The Metaphor: Ground your community in a compelling story of transition. The Diagnosis: Score your school on SPAN’s School Comprehensive Transitions Program Rubric to pinpoint critical gaps. Vision & First Win: Define your long-term plan and an immediate, achievable victory. The Team: Map out key internal allies so you never work in isolation again. The Ask: Formulate a specific request for what you need (budget, time, policy approval…). What Graduates Say "We’ve had experts come for one-day trainings before, but once they left, nothing changed. The SPAN Guided Book Study gave us the structured accountability and step-by-step guide we needed to build a proposal our leadership approved." Why Register? Shared Team Language: Frameworks stick when colleagues learn together. Bring a co-worker or team to build lasting campus momentum. Global Peer Network: Connect weekly with international colleagues facing your exact challenges.
